Really?
Orcas have rights under the 13th Amendment, really? We have an inter-species legal system now? Will the lawyer and/or the jury need to be the Orcas’ peers? If so, the trial would really be a circus!
So many questions, I’m really confused…
Happy 18th Birthday Anna!!!
Anna – I hope you are having a great 18th birthday! I’m glad it’s finally here, I was getting really tired of the constant countdown.
It’s time to celebrate your childhood and look forward to seeing what God will do with you as a young adult. May you continue to trust in God for your daily needs as well as for the marvelous future He has in store for you!
I love you little girl.
…the drippings of the honeycomb are
sweet to your taste.
Know that wisdom is such to your soul;
if you find it, there will be a future,
and your hope will not be cut off.Proverbs 24:13b-14 ESV

My kids are a blessing…and not always just to me!
My kids, along with Victoria from the youth group and Jesus from GGHS, blessed a bunch of elderly folks by leading a worship service at Emeritus in Orange this afternoon. Anna did a great job playing guitar and leading worship, and Tim gave the message!
Tim taught on the importance of being a Christian of courage and authenticity even when confronted by difficult times and people. He used the example of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his courage and faithfulness in speaking truth to his congregants, neighbors and even directly to the Nazis in the face of certain death. He did a great job! The verse for the lesson was:
Even a child is known by his actions, by whether his conduct is pure and right.
– Proverbs 20:11
Well, my kids sure showed me something today…

Getting the Old Gizmo Back!!!
My Gizmo is beginning to get back to normal – finally took him to the vet yesterday and now have him on the road to recovery! He has been fighting some kind of a skin condition (found out that it is a yeast infection!) for a while now that was making him really itchy and uncomfortable, but whenever he WASN’T itching and scratching he was sleeping. After one day of meds and treatment, he already acts more like his bright-eyed curious self. Anna took this picture – she was watching a show on the computer and Gizmo was staring at her like, “Whacha doin? Can I do it too?”. So great to see him active and happy again!
But the bad news is he is back on Prednisone so he is a food-craving machine! Last time he was on Prednisone we controlled him pretty well and he only gained a couple of pounds, but the time before he gained over 6 pounds. When you only weight about 23 pounds, that’s a lot!
Oh well, it’s just great to have our old guy back and feeling good!
